As the retirement of Docker Compose integration for ECS (Amazon Elastic Container Service) and ACI (Azure Container Instances) approaches in November 2023, there arises a concern about finding suitable alternatives to enable Docker in ECS
So any alternative?
Fortunately, a viable alternative called Compose-ECS has emerged, providing an open-source solution for deploying containerised applications in ECS
Compose ECS ( compose-ecs
)
compose-ecs
is CLI tool to deploy your application using docker container in AWS ECS service with just few commands.
Example, you can deploy any application or tool like Jenkins, WordPress, Angular, React and many more with just help of docker-compose.yaml
file. You just have o select your image from https://hub.docker.com/. Create a file like below
services:
jenkins:
image: jenkins/jenkins:lts
ports:
- 8080:8080
